This is a sea crystal created over approximately one month. Seawater drawn from near Aguni Village, known for its beautiful coral reefs, is channeled into a salt evaporation tower. Water is evaporated day and night for 10 days without rest. It is then simmered in a flat-bottomed pan for 30 hours, followed by two weeks of dewatering and drying.
After 20 years of research, conducted with three scholars from the perspective of what salt *should* be, rather than simply restoring ancient salt, "Aguni no Shio" was born.
"Aguni no Shio" enhances the natural flavors of ingredients and is compatible with all dishes, as well as processed goods such as umeboshi, miso, and soy sauce.
